Abstract: A method includes a mobile device receiving a plurality of first signals from one or more first transmitters in a network. Each first signal has first data including an associated time that is non-synchronized to the time of another first signal of the plurality of first signals. One or more processors synchronizes the associated time of each first signal to a common time scale. One or more processors determines a position of the mobile device using a common time scale of the plurality of first signals.

Abstract: Generating signals from non-GNSS transmitters, and processing the signals using a GNSS positioning module. Systems and methods identify a chipping rate, identify a PN code length, generate a PN code that has a length equal to the identified PN code length, generate a positioning signal using the identified chipping rate and the generated PN code, and transmit the positioning signal from the transmitter. The PN code length may produce, at the identified chipping rate, a PN code duration that is equal to or is a multiple of a PN code duration used in a GNSS system, the identified chipping rate may be equal to or a multiple of a chipping rate used in a GNSS system, and the identified PN code length may be equal to or a multiple of a PN code length used in a GNSS system.

Abstract: Estimating a position of a mobile device. Particular systems and methods for estimating a position of a mobile device using information from two positioning technologies determine different position estimates for the mobile device using different positioning technologies, and determine a final position estimate for the mobile device using a weighted combination of the different position estimates. In some implementations, the weighted combination is a weighted average or a weighted median of the different position estimates. Weights may be determined using respective uncertainty metrics corresponding to the respective position estimates.

Abstract: A method for acquisition of a weak signal from a satellite in the presence of a strong interfering signal from another satellite is disclosed. The method encompasses identifying the auto-correlation peak due to the weak satellite signal from the cross correlation peaks due to the strong satellite signal. This invention presents a method and apparatus of acquiring a weak satellite signal in the presence of a strong interfering satellite signal in a receiver by two techniques, namely, the millisecond boundary correlation histogram method, and the frequency response correlation histogram method. Both the techniques distinguish between the correlation characteristics for auto-correlation and cross-correlation. The apparatus presented in the invention implements the methods of weak satellite signal acquisition in presence of a strong interfering satellite signal in a pseudorandom noise (PRN) receiver.
